    It’s here because Canada is the only country in the world with tax payer paid healthcare. Wait, what? Most countries in the world have tax payer paid healthcare? I meant in North America. Wait, what? Mexico has tax payer paid healthcare too?

      Many countries have it, Canada is just the poster child for how bad it can be. The UK is also infamous for the NHS, but MAID is another level of fucked up.

      And yet millions are coming to America. Way to promote the Mexican health care system. They love it so much they run across the border.

        Bro… like half the people I know have gone to Mexico for Healthcare they can’t get in the states because it’s unaffordable. When I lived in AZ I used to go to Mexico to get my prescriptions filled for like 1/30th the cost of the same meds in America.
